Benefits of technology

[0011]The present inventors have performed studies on the anti-HIV activity, etc. of the newly synthesized derivatives, and have found that 2′-deoxy-4′-C-ethynyl-2-fluoroadenosine—which is obtained by introducing a fluorine atom to the 2-position of the base moiety of 2′-deoxy-4′-C-ethynyladenosine (i.e., lead compound)—exhibits resistance to inactivation by adenosine deaminase, has potent antiviral activity against a multi-drug-resistant virus strain exhibiting resistance to various anti-HIV drugs such as AZT, ddI, ddC, d4T, and 3TC, and exhibits enhanced anti-HIV activity and considerably lowered cytotoxicity.
[0017]As shown in the Test Examples provided hereinbelow, the compounds of the present invention (e.g., 2′-deoxy-4′-C-ethynyl-2-fluoroadenosine) exhibit resistance to inactivation by adenosine deaminase, have potent antiviral activity against a multi-drug-resistant virus strain exhibiting resistance to various anti-HIV drugs such as AZT, ddI, ddC, d4T, and 3TC, exhibit unexpectedly enhanced anti-HIV activity; specifically, anti-HIV activity higher by a factor of 144 than that of 2′-deoxy-4′-C-ethynyladenosine (i.e., lead compound), and exhibit considerably lowered cytotoxicity. Therefore, surprisingly, the compounds of the present invention exhibit a selectivity index of 110,000, which is considerably higher than that of 2′-deoxy-4′-C-ethynyladenosine (EdAdo) (i.e., 1,630).
[0018]As described above, the compounds of the present invention exhibit excellent anti-HIV activity, particularly against a multi-drug-resistant HIV strain having resistance to various anti-HIV drugs such as AZT, DDI, DDC, D4T, and 3TC, exhibit less cytotoxicity, and exhibit resistance to inactivation by adenosine deaminase. Therefore, the compounds of the present invention are envisaged for development for producing pharmaceuticals, particularly drugs for treating AIDS.

Problems solved by technology

However, whether or not selectivity index can be improved through introduction of a halogen atom has remained unknown.
However, effects similar to those of d4T are not expected to be obtained in an adenosine derivative, which is a purine nucleoside, whose basic skeleton differs considerably from that of d4T, and therefore, this literature does not provide useful information for the present inventors' purposes.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0001]1. Field of the Invention[0002]The present invention relates to 4′-C-substituted-2-haloadenosine derivatives and use thereof as a medicine, in particular a medicine which is useful for the treatment of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS).[0003]2. Background Art[0004]The clinical setting for AIDS has been dramatically changed by a multi-drug combination therapy, which is sometimes called highly active antiretroviral therapy, or HAART. In HAART, nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs) such as zidovudine (AZT), didanosine (ddI), zalcitabine (ddC), stavudine (d4T), and lamivudine (3TC), and protease inhibitors (PIs) are employed in combination.[0005]Although HAART has drastically decreased the number of deaths caused by AIDS, there has emerged a multi-drug resistant HIV-1 (human immunodeficiency virus-1) mutant exhibiting cross-resistance to various drugs. For example, in the early 1990s patients infected with an HIV exhibiting resistan...
